À propos de ce film

True Grit is a powerful story of vengeance and valor set in an unforgiving and unpredictable frontier where justice is simple and mercy is rare. Mattie Ross (Hailee Steinfeld), is determined to avenge her father's blood by capturing Tom Chaney (Josh Brolin), the man who shot and killed him for two pieces of gold. Just fourteen, she enlists the help of Rooster Cogburn (Academy Award Winner Jeff Bridges), a one-eyed, trigger-happy U.S. Marshall with an affinity for drinking and hardened Texas Ranger LaBoeuf (Academy Award Winner Matt Damon) to track the fleeing Chaney. Despite their differences, their ruthless determination leads them on a perilous adventure that can only have one outcome: retribution.

Notes et avis

One of the best remakes. Jeff Bridges plays Rooster Cogburn, an old and almost broken down character that grudgingly decides to go after a man who murdered the father of a willful young girl at her behest. At first Rooster regards the girl as stubborn and ignorant. But slowly he comes to admire her tenacity as they go on the long trek to find her father's murderer. Ultimately this movie becomes not just a western shoot out but a love story.

The girl in this movie wrote a song about touching herself talk about awkward, its a pop song-- Jeff Bridges and Josh Brolin saved this movie from Matt Damon's performance. Did anyone actually believe he came from Texas? Didn't think so.

Can't redo a Big John Wayne movie NO actor can come close to the Dukes way of cowboys just ain't gonna happen stop trying! ! Made Jeff look bad sorry.
